Teneo.ai, a leader in AI-powered customer service automation, today announced the expansion of its Teneo 8 platform with AI Agents for the Utility Industry.
Built for high-stakes, high-volume service environments, Teneo Enterprise Agentic AI combines LLM-driven natural language with a deterministic intelligence layer and multi-LLM orchestration. This allows electricity, gas and water providers to scale automation across voice and digital channels without sacrificing the safety, accuracy, or PII protection required for critical infrastructure.
As utilities face additional pressure from both aging infrastructure and rising consumer expectations, the need for scalable communication has never been more urgent. In the United States, customers experienced an average of 11 hours of electricity interruptions in 2024, nearly double the annual average of the previous decade. With service satisfaction increasingly tied to proactive communication during these crises, Teneo.ai enables utilities to eliminate "busy signals" and wait times during peak events while reducing operational overhead.
"Utilities are the backbone of modern society, and when service is interrupted, customers need immediate, reliable, and secure information," said Lee Kayne, Senior VP Americas of Teneo.ai. "With Teneo 8, utility providers can move beyond basic chatbots to fully autonomous AI Agents that handle the most complex journeys-from high-pressure outage reporting to intricate billing disputes-all while maintaining the strict governance and compliance standards essential to the sector."
